  • Publication number: 20250079307
    Abstract: A semiconductor packaging substrate comprises a crack-inhibiting dielectric frame and a plurality of interconnect units each including electrically conductive posts and an interfacial dielectric layer. These interconnect units are formed within separate compartments defined by the crack-inhibiting dielectric frame. The interfacial dielectric layer laterally covers and surrounds sidewalls of the electrically conductive posts. By using a crack-inhibiting dielectric frame instead of a conventional metal frame, structural warpage can be suppressed during the application of the interfacial dielectric layer.

    Abstract: A display may include an array of pixels such as light-emitting diode pixels. The pixels may include multiple circuitry decks that each include one or more circuit components such as transistors, capacitors, and/or resistors. The circuitry decks may be vertically stacked. Each circuitry deck may include a planarization layer formed from a siloxane material that conforms to underlying components and provides a planar upper surface. In this way, circuitry components may be vertically stacked to mitigate the size of each pixel footprint. The circuitry components may include capacitors that include both a high-k dielectric layer and a low-k dielectric layer. The display pixel may include a via with a width of less than 1 micron.

  • Publication number: 20240363499
    Abstract: A lead frame substrate includes a circuitry layer, terminals, a warpage inhibiting dielectric layer and a stiffening dielectric layer. The circuitry layer extends laterally from the terminals and has an external surface facing away from the stiffening dielectric layer and an inner surface facing in and spaced from a top surface of the stiffening dielectric layer by the warpage inhibiting dielectric layer. The stiffening dielectric layer can serve as a robust platform to support the lateral extension of a circuitry layer and avoid crack propagation through the stiffening dielectric layer into the circuitry layer. The warpage inhibiting dielectric layer can absorb stress and alleviate warpage of the structure during bonding the stiffening dielectric layer to a lead frame with the terminals.

  • Publication number: 20210289678
    Abstract: An interconnect substrate includes a lower-modulus buffer material disposed around a thermally conductive base and a higher-modulus crack stopper disposed over the buffer material. By the difference of the elastic modulus between the crack stopper and the buffer material, thermo-mechanical induced stress can be absorbed in the buffer material, and crack propagation would be arrested by the crack stopper to ensure reliability of a routing trace which is deposited on the crack stopper and electrically coupled to vertical connecting elements in the buffer material. Further, the crack stopper can have low dissipation factor to ensure a lower rate of energy loss which is beneficial to high frequency applications.

  • Patent number: 10804205
    Abstract: The interconnect substrate mainly includes a stiffener, a core layer, a warp balancer and a routing circuitry. The stiffener has an elastic modulus higher than 100 GPa and is laterally surrounded by the core layer. The warp balancer is disposed over the top surface of the core layer and laterally surrounds a cavity aligned with the stiffener. The routing circuitry is disposed under the bottom surfaces of the stiffener and the core layer and electrically connected to the stiffener. By the high modulus of the stiffener, local thermo-mechanical stress induced by un-even thickness can be counterbalanced. Furthermore, adjusting the ratio of the stiffener thickness to the cavity dimension can maintain the cavity area stiffness and modulate the global flatness.

  • Publication number: 20200146192
    Abstract: The semiconductor assembly includes a semiconductor chip, a first wiring structure and a second wiring structure. The second wiring structure includes a warp balancer, a core layer, a top build-up layer and a bottom build-up layer. The warp balancer is laterally surrounded by the core layer and preferably has an elastic modulus higher than 100 GPa. The top and the bottom build-up layers are electrically connected to each other through the warp balancer or the core layer therebetween. The first wiring structure is disposed over the top build-up layer through connecting joints superimposed over the warp balancer. By the high modulus of the warp balancer, local thermo-mechanical stress can be counterbalanced to suppress warping and bending of the first and second wiring structures. Furthermore, mounting the first wiring structure over the second wiring structure can provide staged fan-out routing for the chip to improve routing efficiency and production yield.

  • Publication number: 20200135630
    Abstract: The interconnect substrate includes etching stoppers within a cavity and a plurality of metal leads disposed around the cavity. The cavity is formed by etching a sacrificial metal slug of a leadframe and laterally surrounded by a resin compound. The etching stoppers are deposited in pits of the metal slug and contact a routing circuitry. By removal of the metal slug, the etching stoppers are exposed from the cavity to provide electrical contacts for device connection within cavity. Due to high etch resistance of the etching stoppers, the integrity of the electrical contacts can be ensured during the cavity formation. As a result, a semiconductor device can be face-down disposed in the cavity and electrically connected to the reliable electrical contacts at the floor of the cavity.

    Abstract: A method of making a wiring board having an electrical isolator and metal posts incorporated in a resin core is characterized by the provision of moisture inhibiting caps covering interfaces between the electrical isolator/metal posts and a surrounding plastic material. In a preferred embodiment, the electrical isolator and metal posts are bonded to the resin core by an adhesive substantially coplanar with the metal films on the electrical isolator, the metal posts and the metal layers on two opposite sides of the resin core at smoothed lapped top and bottom surfaces so that a metal bridge can be deposited on the adhesive at the smoothed lapped bottom surface to completely cover interfaces between the electrical isolator/metal posts and the surrounding plastic material. Conductive traces are also deposited on the smoothed lapped top surface to provide electrical contacts for chip connection and electrically coupled to the metal posts.
